so with the measuring for raps and gowns Ames
High graduatcs-to-be began to look forward to
the activities of senior week.
May 19 and 20 were the dates of the first
event, the presentation of tin- senior class play
Jane Eyre by Wall Spence.
Baccalaureate followed on May 28 with the
Reverend Herbert L. Bryant of Ames addressing
the group.
Visions of food and fun for everyone were in
the minds of seniors as they made preparations
for their picnic and prom.
Senior activities came to a close with Com-
mencement on June 2. The Reverend Gaylord
Couchman of Dubuque delivered the address.
Although lots of thought was focused on col-
leges and vocations, seniors, nevertheless, were
also thinking about their “good old Ames High
days.'' Days filled with sports, music and
dramatics, work and play, dances and parties,
as well as classes will be long remembered.
Homecoming queen was Liz L. Martin. Martha
St uber and Barb Hey wood were attendente.
Spirit Sweetheart for the “Spirit Special”
midyear dance was Margaret Getz. Her attend-
ees were Jane Mendon and Martha Stuber.
Jim Champlin, Bob Buck. Harold Olson and
Dick Cox were placed on All-Star football teams.
Jim was elected captain of Ames High's Central
Iowa conference champs.
Bob Buck and Dick Cox were members of All-
Conference basketball teams. Bob was also
elected basketball captain.
Student body presidents were John Bravton,
first semester, and Kd Griffith, second semester.
Although seniors will be separated in the next
years, one tie they will always maintain—the
determination to keep their traditional “aims
high.”

It was an eventful year for Ames High's 14:!
juniors, and they became seniors with many
notable accomplishments under their belts.
The first item on their agenda was to elect
officers. Richard Harlan was chosen president,
Mary dam Arnold was secretary, and Jane
Gaskill. treasurer, .lack Naughton, vice-president,
moved to Nevada early in the year and was
replaced by John Judge. Dick Fowler and Dick
Hall rounded out the junior executive council
which was under the sponsorship of Mr. Jarvis.
In September Ames High, and particularly
the juniors, were pleased to learn that Don RouzC
had been elected secretary of the state Student
('ouneil association.
The football season found a number of junior
athletes contributing to Ames High's CK'
champs. Seeing a lot of action were Art Barnes.
Keith Brown, Dick Day. Dick Fowler. Jim
Galligan, Dick Harlan, John Mancv, and Bob
Spangler.
The same caliber of play which marked junior
footballers carried over into the basketball sea-
son. Winning varsity letters were Bob Spangler.
Irwin Milliken, Dick Fowler and Bob Brayton.
Plans for the junior class play were receiving
consideration even before thoughts were turning
to Christmas vacation. Dear Ruth, a comedy
about wartime romance, was chosen to be given
February 1G and 18. Casting was completed be-
fore Christinas to allow plenty of time for learn-
ing parts. Included in the cast were Judy
Wilson. Jean Holcomb, Margot Miller. Don
Rouze, Delores Fisher. Dick Day. Gordon
Shepherd, Catherine Schanehe. Tom McDowell,
and John Nichols. Much credit is due all the
crew members who gave time and energy toward
making the play a success.
Many compliments, (and silver dollars), came
to Keith Brown, when he received the award for
being the safest driver in Ames High. Also
among the top ten were Dick Hall, Beverly
Scheuermann, and John Maney.
As it always is, the Prom was the climax of
the junior year. Discussions began early in the
homerooms about the theme for this year's prom.
Much time and hard work were given in plan-
ning and decorating the gym. Held May 31, the
Prom was a fitting highlight to a successful year
for Ames High's 1950 junior class.

organization, is available to all those students
who are interested in the field of newspaper
writing and who are not enrolled in the regular
journalism class offered in the senior year.
Meetings serve to introduce Cubs' club mem-
bers to the fundamentals of newspaper writing
and to accustom them to journalistic style.

nalism comes next. After several assignments the
club is ready to attempt its main project, writing
and editing the first Wtb of the second semester.
Bach person is responsible for writing some part
of this weekly newssheet. Students who have
completed their assignments on this issue satis-
factorily are given the opportunity to write copy

Under the sponsorship of Miss Charlotte
Nelson, journalism instructor, the members of
the organization receive a chance to learn briefly
about newspaper writing and editing and to see
if they will be interested enough in the work to
enroll in journalism class when a senior.

The Library Club added a new activity this
year to the usual activities of governing the
library, repairing damaged books, and arrang-
ing the hall display ease. Book reviews were
given after school by high school teachers. Mr.
Kenneth Wells reviewed Modern Arms and Free
Men by Bush. The other two reviews were given
by Miss Mary McNally and Mr. Aldrich Paul,
who reviewed Tin Fiver Lin by Morgan and
1984 by Orwell. Jan Gerbrach was president this
year with Margaret Getz and Avonell Zenor as
vice-president and secretary, respectively.
Sponsored by Mr. Kenneth Page, the Film
Operators club is organized as a service to the
teachers of Ames High. The duties of the club
are to run the movie machines and other equip-
ment. By working twenty clock hours a member
can receive one-fourth credit toward high school
graduation. Officers for the year were John
Weber, president; Art Bappe. vice-president;
Ba rba ra Sherman, secret a ry-t reasurer.
A few weeks before the Thanksgiving vacation,
children's story and picture books were collected
by Red Cross council members in each homeroom
and taken to the Lutheran Children's Home in
Ames. Before the Christmas vacation gift boxes
were sent to children in war torn countries. The
Red Cross sponsored two programs at the Vet-
eran's Hospital in Dos Moines. A talent show,
presented as an assembly for Ames High earlier
in the year, was reproduced for the veterans on
February 11, and a religious music program was
given April 7. Members of this organization were
appointed by the presidents of each homeroom.
Kay Johnston was president; Marcia McGuire,
secretary, Mrs. Elizabeth Dickinson, sponsor.

Driver's Training is the class
which instructor Floyd M. Grainge
claims the students "run to get to
and wall; to leave."
Proof of this are the SO students
who participated in the years' pro-
gram which consisted of a weekly
class at school, held out of class
time, where driving laws and parts
of an automobile were studied and
in actual driving periods where
novices took to the by ways and
lanes with special permits tucked
in their pockets.
Pictured inspecting the intricate
details of a motor with Mr. Grainge
are Pat Morrissey and Donnalee

Our guess is Homecoming,
hog sneaks a geak.

Join the hand—get a free meal.
More along there, you initiates.
More hand, more free food.
